Leading jockey Jake Toeroek continued his sizzling start to the 2022-23 racing season with a riding treble at Morphettville on Saturday.
Jake Toeroek and the Richard and Chantelle Jolly stable claimed an early race to race double with Deepfloat Diva and Pudding before the lethal combination added a third victory to another big day at the office when Aviatress proved superior later in the day.
Toeroek is currently enjoying his most successful calendar year of riding, Saturday successes taking his record to 68 winners for 2023.
The Price Bloodstock pair of Deepfloat Diva, who would have been Hong Kong bound if he didn’t fail a vet test, and Aviatress maintaining their unbeaten records, Toeroek confident both horses will find their way into better races.
“He’s a very smart horse,” Toeroek said of Deepfloat Diva.
“I’d say he’ll probably go for a break now but when he comes back in, we’re looking at a pretty nice one,” he said.
Likewise, the leading jockey said there is also plenty of upside with Aviatress who had no problems jumping from a midweek maiden to city success.
“She’s a smart horse, I think she’s black type,” Toeroek added.
“I’m just glad we get to keep these ones,” he said of the pair.
Kayla Crowther had a riding double winning with Sir Kingsford before the talented Sghirippa scored an impressive win in the final race of the big 10-race card.
“He switched off really well and when I popped him out, he had a really good turn of foot,” Crowther said.
“I reckon he had so much more up his sleeve,” she said.
Jason Holder also had a riding double with Lights Of Broadway and Victorian Anilla, while the Will Clarken and Niki O’Shea stable had a training double with Silent Surrente regaining winning form before Superior Sam scored impressively.
DOM Tourneur and Justin Potter shared riding honours at Naracoorte on Sunday.
Tourneur combined for a double with the Aaron Bain and Ned Taylor pair of Navy Gold and Midnight Mass while Potter claimed the bookends winning the opening race with Namadji and the last with Archway To Heaven for Scott Whittle.
